#1 is in The Brothers collection. Looks to be Fred Gibb on the left.

Judging by the '72' in the dealership window the photo was taken in 1972, when Jim Hayter owned it. May be him on the right.

There is a great FB page about Jim with lots of photos of ZL-1 #1 and other cars that he raced also. Worth checking out.

Also Fans of Fred Gibb group that has some cool info too.

ZL-1 #1 was changed many times over the years

There are not a lot of good photos from 1969.

In 1970 it was re-painted - close to the 69 paint but the stripe was different

1971 was different paint also

ZL-1 #1 was one of the radical Harrell light weight Camaros with the fiberglass nose and many other mods

Ray Sullins and Herb Fox drove it in 1969 , Dick Harrell drove it on its first race

The guy who raced in in the 70s and 80s posted photos of it with blue paint.

Saw this in person amongst all the other 600 plus cars in the Brother's collection this past summer.
